I made my 1st juice!

[Chillerhippie]

I had around 5ml of TECC Titan Fluid menthol 18mg and decided for an experiment, I would put 3ml of ASDA's natural strawberry flavoring from the baking isle and guess what? Strawberry Menthol!!!

It's actually really nice and even though the nicotine will be reduced to about 10/11mg it still has the same effect and smokes BETTER than before!

I'm going to be buying some more food flavorings next time I go shopping to see what else I can do!

Check that those flavourings are water based, not oil based though

How can you tell?

 

[asha23]

I guess you should be able to tell on the ingredients list on the bottle. I wouldn't personally use supermarket flavourings as some are made using a solvent/oilbased extraction. (IE they are essential oils). I have never tried it, (nor would I) so I'm not sure what you should be looking for on the bottles.

The fact that you are unsure probably means you shouldn't be vaping it in a way! I'd be very sure that your flavouring is safe to vape before you vape it

I think I have read on here before that some Supermarket flavours are OK. but some aren't and they can be next to each other on the shelves as they are designed for food, not vaping. Just because it's OK to eat, may not mean it's OK to inhale. It's far better to get your DIY flavours from E-Cig websites to be absolutely certain that they are suitable for vaping. Just to be on the safe side. They cost around the same amount.

Try Decadent Vapours in the UK. They have a great range of flavours and are what they use to make their juices so are deemed safe to vape.

Actually. A quick look on Asda's site says the ingredients are Water and Strawberry Flavouring, so you should be OK

Wheras the Orange flavour they do contains Emulsifier (Polyoxyethylene Sorbitan Monooleate)

I wouldn't go vaping that.

Thanks everyone! I did a "burn test" to see if it was flammable, it is but not much. I guessing that is the strawberry's natural sugars which are burning.

The flavouring you used is watered down, that's why it took 3ml to flavour 5ml of eliquid.
Use it for a week and see how it will coat your atomiser in a hard blob of burnt sugary deposits.
Good concentrated flavours require a much smaller amount, starting with around 8 drops in a 5ml bottle.
They are mostly PG based and should give a clean vape without gunging up.
I know you're excited at your discovery, we've all had that pleasure, but stick with suppliers who are
selling specifically to the vaping community and you'll find a wealth of flavours, combinations, and help.
I bet you could easily find over 1,000 different flavours on this site
There's even Fried Bacon for when you get the munchies!

hi! Only use oil-based liquid aroma, not even real sugar, no milk in it. I can give the best idea: look at TastyVapor pages and pages where the aroma. LorannOil of excellent flavor, perhaps one of the best raw materials!
I've made ​​several times, and I assure you I have experience. I tried HC, FlawourArt, Innawera and other LorannOil but so far the most intense and realistic!

If liquid mix for yourself, use the calculator to the liquid volumes accurately. let stand for one day without cover, do not shake, mix slowly. wait a week and you will be perfect. may be used for microwave 650W max 30ml 10sec after mixing. little flavor firstly, drip-tip tasted. the beginning of a lot of work, but later formed fast.

+1 on Capella from me, I've loved the majority of their flavourings that I've tried.

Ecigexpress has a brilliant selection from a number of sources . . .
